Chapter 39: Actually Solving a Case
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Qin Zhenzhen’s family was a large one.
Her eldest and second brothers were already married but still lived together. Her eldest brother even had a two-year-old son.
With Qin Zhenzhen, her grandma, and her parents, the total number of family members was eleven.
The dining space was a bit cramped, with one main table and an additional low table. The two sisters-in-law and the two-year-old nephew sat at the low table, but they didn’t mind.
The food spread across both tables, showcasing the family’s lavish dinner. There were dishes like pig feet and pig ears.
All three of Qin Zhenzhen’s brothers worked as butchers. They owned two pork stalls and a beef stall in town, ensuring a steady supply of meat in the household.
Qin Zhenzhen’s brother and sisters-in-law were astonished as they sipped her fish soup and savored the braised carp.
“Mother, did Zhenzhen really cook this fish soup and carp, not you?” they asked in disbelief.
Ms. Yang proudly confirmed, “Yes, Zhenzhen cooked it herself! It’s a delightful surprise. Zhenzhen is so talented and resourceful that she can amaze everyone with her first-time cooking.”
“Mother, you were the one who gave Zhenzhen pointers, right? But mother’s fish cooking wasn’t this delicious at all.”
“Is this called the student surpassing the master?”
“Hahaha, that must be it!”
Other than Grandma Qin, the entire family laughed happily.
Qin Zhenzhen observed her grandma closely, noting her reaction as she took a sip of the fish soup. Her hands trembled briefly, but she continued to drink without showing any other sign of emotion.
Curiosity consumed Qin Zhenzhen. What kind of experiences had her grandma gone through in the past?
Ms. Yang also wore a smile and inquired with genuine concern, “Mom, how is the fish soup?”
Grandma Qin maintained her calm expression. “It’s acceptable.”
Ms. Yang’s happiness grew even more.
Her mother-in-law was known for being meticulous about food, so for her to deem it acceptable was quite rare.
Ms. Yang proudly added, “Actually, I didn’t teach Zhenzhen how to cook. It was Zhenzhen’s sister-in-law, Su Ning, who taught her. But it wouldn’t be possible without Zhenzhen’s own understanding and remarkable talent in cooking!”
The family eagerly showered Qin Zhenzhen with praise.
“This is the most incredible fish soup I’ve ever had. The fish meat is simply exceptional!”
“Zhenzhen’s cooking skills rival those of professional chefs in top-tier restaurants!”
“I dare say it’s on par with the delicacies prepared by royal chefs!”
Qin Zhenzhen couldn’t help but feel elated. The recognition from her family brought her immense joy.
She had deliberately showcased her culinary prowess to demonstrate her capabilities as a self-sufficient woman who could lead a fulfilling life without relying on a man. Her intention was to persuade her family to support her in pursuing a divorce.
However, before she could utter a word, Qin Dalong interjected.
“We bumped into Qian Erniu. He had something to tell us about Zhenzhen.”
Ms. Yang’s curiosity was piqued. “What is it? Please, do tell!”
Qin Dalong appeared perplexed. “Zhenzhen, didn’t you inform Mom and Dad about what happened?”
Qin Zhenzhen shook her head. “I haven’t had the chance to discuss it yet. It’s just a minor issue.”
Ms. Yang grew increasingly anxious. “What happened? Tell me right away!”
She worried about her daughter mistreating others, but she was equally concerned about her daughter being mistreated by others. Even if it was a minor issue, she wanted to know the details.
Qin Dalong proceeded to recount the incidents involving Ms. Lin’s mistreatment of Su Cheng, Qin Zhenzhen’s efforts to prove Su Cheng’s innocence, her fishing trip with Su Ning, and her rejection of Ms. Lin’s proposal.
Ms. Yang was left speechless with astonishment.
“Zhenzhen, my precious daughter! You’re truly remarkable! Solving a case like this requires the skills of a seasoned detective!”
“No wonder you have such a close bond with your sister-in-law and brother-in-law. So many extraordinary things have taken place!”
